Chapter 717 Ignition Success
Looking at the white clouds outside the window, the corners of Jiang Lang's mouth curled up slightly.
He had waited for this day for too long.
do not know either...
Is what has been developed truly perfect controllable nuclear fusion?
If it were true, then interstellar travel would no longer be a dream.
night...
Shanhe University-Baihu Campus.
At eleven o'clock at midnight, the dormitory building has begun to close.
The students who were playing outside also rushed out of the dormitory at the last minute one after another.
The entire campus suddenly became a little deserted.
buzz~
Like the roar of an engine!
A luxury car drove up from the bottom of the mountain and stopped at the gate of Baihu Campus.
"Bang~"
The car door was opened and Jiang Lang slowly stepped out of the car.
His appearance instantly attracted the attention of several teachers guarding the school gate.
Principal Zeng walked forward with his people.
"Dean Jiang, you are finally here."
Jiang Lang nodded slightly and said, "The news hasn't spread, has it?"
"No~ everyone is under surveillance." Zeng Qiang shook his head and spoke slowly.
As the most important nuclear fusion project of Shanhe University, it has been carried out in secrecy from the beginning. Hundreds of experts have all gathered together, and the bodyguards of Ace Shield have personally watched...
Jiang Lang nodded slightly: "Let's go~ take me over and have a look."
"Ok!"
Soon, everyone arrived at the experimental building, or scientific research area, of the Baihu Campus.
Different from the experimental buildings on several other campuses, the experimental building on the Baihu campus was specially developed and planned on a hilltop.
After all, other campuses either focus on people's livelihood, humanities, or infrastructure.
but...
Only the Baihu campus focuses on national defense research.
Therefore, the number of places required for experiments is several times larger than that of other campuses!
Following Zeng Qiang, everyone arrived at the scientific research area, the innermost experimental building.
However, it is said to be an experimental building, but it is more like a huge factory building wrapped in iron sheets.
Outside, there are security guards patrolling and alert!
Push open the closed doors and walk to the innermost part.
A huge machine appeared in Jiang Lang's sight.
It is 20 meters high and dozens of meters long and wide, like a giant crawling on the ground.
I'll go~
Is this thing so big?
In the novel, how did those people rub the nuclear fusion device with one hand?
Jiang Lang swallowed his throat, turned his head and looked around, and found that there were many people inside.
They are all wearing protective clothing, and they should all be scientific researchers on the project...
Scattered around, at a glance, there were hundreds of people.
"Is this a controllable nuclear fusion device?" He seemed to be asking, but his tone was full of certainty.
"Yes, this is the Tokamak device we designed according to the drawings, also called the Oriental Hyperring. It is a ring-shaped vessel that uses magnetic confinement to achieve controlled nuclear fusion!
In order to create this thing, tens of billions were spent.
If you include the cost of research materials, it is simply sky-high...
Mainly because at that time, we couldn't find many of the materials on the drawings, so we had to design them ourselves.
In controllable nuclear fusion, the real technical difficulty lies in the interior of the device, especially the material of the first wall, which must withstand high-temperature burning of hundreds of millions of degrees and nuclear radiation from neutrons.
At that time... nearly 10 billion was spent on researching an internal high-temperature resistant material...
In addition, there are superconducting materials, carbon fiber composite materials, plasma flow models, etc...
Each one is a sky-high expense..."
Zeng Qiang tried his best to let Jiang Lang understand how hard-won the machine in front of him was in a relatively simple way.
After all, Jiang Lang is not a professional. His words are too complicated and the other party will not understand.
As long as the other party understands that the money is well spent, it will be fine.
otherwise...
Hundreds of billions of scientific research funds are spent every year, but nothing can be achieved.
The nuclear fusion project team found it too hot to handle with this money...
He, the principal, is blushing too!
Jiang Lang nodded slightly and did not interrupt Principal Zeng's words. He waited until the other party finished speaking before speaking.
"Light the fire~"
It's useless to talk nonsense, the truth is whether the ignition can be successful!
"Okay~" Principal Zeng nodded slightly, turned to look behind him, and saw an old man with white hair and a slightly stooped body: "Li Gong, I'll leave the rest to you."
Li Gong, formerly known as Li Jianyun, is the leader of the nuclear fusion project team of Shanhe University.
It turned out that he was a retired boss of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, an academician-level existence.
In the beginning, Principal Zeng spent a lot of manpower and material resources in order to invite this old man to come out.
Jiang Lang naturally knows the other party well. He was even present when he was recruiting people, so he naturally knows the weight of this person!
Then he said: "Trouble, Mr. Li."
"It's easy to say! I was just waiting for you." Li Jianyun smiled heartily. He originally thought that after retiring from the Academy of Sciences, he would be able to have a good rest.
At first, he was unwilling to come out. It was not until Jiang Lang came to the door in person with the drawings that he changed his mind.
The importance of nuclear fusion is known to ordinary people, let alone him.
He picked up the walkie-talkie: "Departments, get ready! In three minutes, an ignition test will begin!"
"Understood~"
The crowd dispersed and everyone returned to their jobs.
Zeng Qiang dragged Jiang Lang to the observation room next door, trying not to disturb other people.
Gong Li returned to the main control room, adjusted the laser heating angle, and completed all data verification.
"Three~"
"Two~"
"One~"
"start!"
After finishing speaking, Li Gong pressed the ignition button decisively.
The laser heating device started to operate, and rays of light appeared out of thin air.
Everyone held their breath and stared motionlessly into the reactor, looking forward to the moment when the tokamak device lit up.
One minute...
Two minutes...
three minutes...
The air seemed to become a little dull, and everyone's eyes were a little blank.
Failed?
impossible! They followed the drawings exactly.
How could it fail!
Could it be that the technology and data on the drawings are all fake?
Even Jiang Lang couldn't help but frown slightly.
next second.
A muffled sound came from inside the reactor.
A red ball of light rises slowly, dazzling and bright!
All the scientific researchers looked at each other with sarcastic disbelief in their eyes!
One second I was in hell, and the next second I was in heaven. It was so ups and downs in my heart that it was really unbearable!
Jiang Lang's hands trembled slightly, and he shook them again and again. Through the protective glass of the observation room, he looked at the rising "sun~" and finally couldn't help shouting: "Success!"
Like a chain reaction, a joyful voice sounded in the laboratory building.
"Fuck~ It worked!"
"It actually worked!"
"This is the dawn of mankind, a big step forward for civilization..."
